Be thankful that you found it before catastrophe hit. I think that you will be pleased with Jim Bailey's work. An 8 3/4 should hold up in your car. Have you ever seen Darcy's car launch? WOW! I run the same combo as Darcy but in a 3995 lb wagon. I played with 8 3/4s for years and wasted too much money before I finally switched to a Dana 60. Set up 3 race ready 8 3/4 chunks and you've paid for a Dana. I respect that it could be a little slower (not even a tenth) but you cannot win a race when they need a hook to get your hot rod off the starting line!

Good Luck!
